Alla:

I am not sure I understand how it is a good example? You are talking about destroying the story because he made the recent movies or you meant something else?

If you are talking about that, then presumably you liked his writing AND storytelling in the original Star wars, right?

I just do not understand how one can assess that story is good and that writing is horrid at the same time, you know?


I mean I totally understand if for example we would say that in such and such book we have the good story and I don't know, say "less than perfect" writing, but not "bad" writing.

Because to me, to enjoy the story, you (generic you) must enjoy *something* in the way how it was told.

JMO,
